SUWANEE, Ga. - AkGlobe -- The Sugar Hill Choir of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints  and Gwinnett Community Band present their 18th annual spring concert themed, "What a Wonderful World."

The concert will be held at 7 p.m. on April 23 and 24 at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It is located at 4833 Suwanee Dam Road, adjacent to North Gwinnett High School in Suwanee, Ga. No ticket is necessary for the free concert performed by nearly 100 singers and musicians.

"There is something powerful in being able to come together again to be reminded through music of all the good and beauty in our world," said Burke Hunsaker, first counselor in the Sugar Hill Stake Presidency that oversees seven area congregations. "We are grateful to partner once again with our friends in the Gwinnett Community Band and invite all to come and celebrate God's gift of life through music and song."

Thrilled to be together for the first time since 2019, the choir and band will perform a variety of familiar and contemporary selections that celebrate the beauty all around us: the beauty of relationships, of nature, of hard work, and of life, family and home. The evening will include a special tribute to Ukraine and will feature the song, "Let There Be Peace on Earth," to those suffering around the world.
